Mom,
I miss you so much!
Your illness took away your beautiful smile, it took away your ability to walk and talk.
Your illness took away your memory and your ability to think.
I will not let your illness take away the time I have to tell the world what a great MOM you were.
I remember the look of determination on your face during the countless hours behind the boat learning to water ski.
I remember your smile when you finally got up.
I remember the passion you had going back to College after raising a family and working full time.
I remember the look of accomplishment when you received your Degree from Woodbury University at the age of 52.
I remember growing up in a house of Love and home cooked meals.
I remember the joy that Holidays and family gatherings meant to you.
I remember the look in your eyes when you were surrounded by family.
I remember the Love in your eyes whenever Dad walked into the room, and I saw those same eyes the last time I saw you.
I remember you as a Girl Scout leader, a PTA President, a role model, a baker, a cook, a listener, a problem solver and a friend.
I remember you as a Wife, a Grandma, a Great Grandma, Sister, Sister in law, Aunt, Daughter in law, but I remember you most as my MOM.
You were the best Mom ever
Although your journey on earth has ended, your everlasting journey with God has started.
Your Loving Son,
Gary
